Mapping the Past
Between 1918 and 1933, the arts and sciences exploded throughout Europe — in large part due to the the nurturing and culturally rich environment of the Weimar Republic. Ideas born from within the Republic seeped into the worlds outside of it.
Examining the overlapping lives of artists through their physical movement and letter trails during this period paints a picture that illuminates history from a unique perspective. Digitally mapping these networks, we begin to answer questions about what they look like; how far they reach; how they develop and the sphere of their influence.
